SCAVEN is a micro-tool for data recovery. It was
designed to perform unattended multi-string searches
through large hard drives. It records position of
matches found to the output text file in a
sector:offset:match format. Those who ever had to dig
the data from the drive that developed bad sectors,
already know how excruciating exercise it could be
(especially if it was say a 20 GB drive). If disk
editor program ask user confirmation on every single
bad sector - it may keep him/her tied to computer for
hours. Or if there was more weak spots - not in
continuos chain - operation may take days. SCAVEN
gracefuly deals with this problem by performing
unattended fully automatic hard drive search without
nagging the user for assistance. SCAVEN is an
effective tool and time saver in the recovering data
from: files permanently deleted, files lost through
overwrite, accidentally formatted drives, drives with
damaged MBR / lost partitions, drives with corrupted
FATs, and drives which developed bad sectors. MAJOR
FEATURES: * Perform multiple-string search in single
pass * Work with any size LBA hard-drive (up to 138GB
should be OK) * Autodetect drive geometry (CHS and
LBA) * Can access drives not visible for DOS * Use
standard text files for input / output * Was written
in a plain assembler for the sake of size / speed * To
remove program just delete its directory.
